History:
Ken was born on one of the many immigration ships coming from Europe in those days, his mother died in labor and nobody knew who his father was. When he was brought into the immigration building at Ellis Island he was given the name Ken Smith. Since nobody really wanted to adopt him he ended up at an orphanage, run by Catholic nuns. The poor nuns did their best to make young Ken behaving, but neither prayer nor beatings had the desired effect. He soon grew into a bully, preying on those younger and weaker than him.
With time he grew more and more sadistic, and he soon turned to torturing and killing smaller animals. His thirst for inflicting pain on others grew, and when he was caught torturing the horse of the orphanage he ran away rather than face the punishment. He was now fourteen and out on the means streets of New York City.
Ken still preyed on those weaker than him, but now he was a prey himself, something he learned the hard way. But Ken was a quick learner and he learned to keep away when he should, and he learned how to get his revenge when someone got the better of him. When he was sixteen he killed for the first time, getting a revenge on a drunk who had beaten him up when the drunk had passed out in a dark alleyway. He simply crushed his head with a rock, and walked away not regretting a thing.
When he was nineteen he tricked Patrick O'Flanagan, a twenty year old Irish man, to come with him to an abandoned building. Ken tortured Patrick for hours, ending up killing him by accident making Patrick his third victim, the second being another passed out drunk. The killing annoyed Ken, Patrick was supposed to last longer.
When Patrick's body was discovered even the mean streets of New York got frightened. Ken was never caught, but when he tricked another young man into what he thought was an abandoned building, but it wasn't. Halfway through Frankie DeMarco and his men caught him in the act, and Frankie quickly figured out that Ken was Patrick's murderer. Frankie's men caught Ken, thinking he was a sick bastard even by their standards, and gave him a beating, and they would have killed him if Frankie hadn't intervened when inspiration struck. Ken was lead into another room, where a shopowner who had fallen behind on his payments was tied to a chair. At this point Ken was auditioning, and the fact the man was innocent didn't matter one bit, and when he was done even the hardened mobsters had turned noticeably whiter in their faces.
From that day Frankie made sure Ken had all he needed to live a comfortable life, but more important Ken had found somewhere he belonged, where he was respected, where he was feared. All Ken had to do was do his little magic once in a while, making himself to quite the boogeyman of the New York underworld, and for this Ken stayed loyal to Frankie. He didn't go look for his own victims anymore, he got all the victims he needed from Frankie.
After a while Frankie thought Ken should relocate since he had made a lot of enemies, and was sent down to Miami with Vincent DeMarco where Vincent made a name for himself with the help of Ken. Ken still makes trips back to New York when Frankie needs his expertize, and even to other big cities in the US. He also attends the social gatherings when Vincent asks him to, but when not torturing someone Ken prefers to spend his time in his private workshop, creating new fun toys he can use on some poor devil.
